Product guide

What to consider before choosing Claude

Best suited for

Well suited to writers, analysts, researchers, and developers who work through long source material or need to preserve context while revising an answer. It works best when the original documents and acceptance criteria are supplied.

Consider another option if

It is a poor fit when an answer must be accepted without checking the underlying source or runtime. Availability of models, integrations, context limits, and data controls differs between consumer, team, and API plans.
